Music producer, filmmaker, and social media guru Matt Xian talks about his experience using psychedelics and how it has impacted his creative pursuits. After a profound experience with psilocybin mushrooms, Matt found himself inspired to create from a different perspective. Music, films, experiences, all informed by the profound insights gained through psychedelics. He also talks about the importance of developing the ability to focus, and how social media is engineered to keep you hooked and distracts you from your work.

EA Ep.06 How Psychedelics Could Impact Your Creativity With Matt Xian

When Victor Oddo experienced the first signs of his spiritual awakening, we thought he was going insane, after completely transforming his life, he now has a successful YouTube channel where he shares the kind of his information that was not available to him during his awakening process. We caught up with Victor at Rythmia in Costa Rica, where he shared some of his wisdom regarding following your calling, and his experiences with plant medicine.

EA Ep.05 Following Your Calling With Victor Oddo

Serial Tech entrepreneur Dmitry Buterin shares what he learned as he ran three multi-million dollar businesses. From implementing Teal, a new paradigm for organizations in which the traditional hierarchical system is replaced by a system of self-organization and self-management; to realizing the importance of doing business that benefits not only the share-holders but its employees and the world at large. Buterin also dives into his personal experience with psychedelics and other tools for self-development as he transitioned from being an entrepreneur into his spiritual journey.

EA Ep.04 Psychedelics And Emotional Splinters

A luxurious lifestyle, traveling around the world, beautiful girlfriends…everything Zark Fatah had by the time he turned 40 years old made him a 'successful man' by some standards. However, despite the superficial success, on his 40th birthday, he knew he was not living a fulfilled life and had to face the harsh reality that a change in paths was due... In the first episode ever of the Elemental Awakening Podcast, we chat with Zark Fatah, nightlife entrepreneur who after going through an awakening to his true purpose, decided to become a facilitator for transformational travel experiences, where he helps people achieve breakthroughs through insightful workshops and challenging activities. Fatah talks about those difficult moments when we have to let go of our past and the idea of who we were to embrace our true calling and the potential of a fulfilled life. We hope that listening to inspirational stories like Zark's transformation can push our viewers to 'surrender' to their own awakening process and look inward to achieve the life they envision.

Ep.6 The Way Within - A Calling to Find Native Tradition with Sal Gencarelle

On this episode of The W.A.Y. Within I got to meet up with one of my first spiritual teachers Daniel Mitel. Daniel Travels the world (over 60 countries last year) teaching the most incredible workshops from knowledge he has acquired over his lifetime. Daniel's mission is to help people understand their intimate connection to their Inner Selves. He is the first person in the world (in modern times) to explain and define the origin of the ancient Heart Imagery system. Heart Imagery, the ancient system that originates from ancient Tibetan, Sumerian and Vedic spiritual mystery schools, relates to the highest number of Mystery School: 555. It is related with Adamic Race, with the power of dreaming and reversing the past, present and future. Daniel started to teach Zen Meditation in 1981 and between 1981 and 1992 he was doing “the spinal breathing” meditation; later he found out that, in fact, he did practice the Kriya Pranayama of Kriya Yoga Great Master Babaji. Since 1996, he is teaching worldwide Heart Imagery workshops. In 1991, Daniel start meditating with Romanian mystic Lady Ana who connected him with “The School of The Heart”, the school created thousands of years ago by the Masters who understood that the only way to remember who we really are is to reconnect with the energy of the heart. After couple of years spent in meditation in North of Tibet, in 1999, Daniel created “The School of the Heart”. Ten years later, in Toronto, he created “The School of Meditation”. Daniel is teaching also three very important workshops: “Kriya Yoga (The Spinal Breathing)”, “The Power of The Heart and Inner Healing” and “Journeys Into The Heart”. Daniel is also a Martial Arts Master (Tai Chi Master and Karate Traditional Black Belt 5 DAN in WJKA – World Japan Karate Association), Daniel is dedicated to inspiring the world to move from violence to peace and from anger to love. Throughout his work, workshops and spiritual conferences, Daniel changed the life of thousands of people. Prior and after Tibetan Great Masters, Daniel worked with a group of well known Masters from different schools of meditation (Osho, Dalai Lama, Kriya Yoga Great Masters, Lady Ana, Di Yu Ming, Drunvalo Melchizedek, Anastasia) who train their students to be in the Heart. Now, together with his own workshops, Daniel Mitel is bringing Awakening The Illuminated Heart workshop out to the world. By teaching all these spiritual seminars, Daniel is sharing a message of hope and possibility to anyone who wants to experience a new understanding of life; an understanding which comes from the heart.

Ep.5 Journeys into the Heart with Daniel Mitel

Ep.3 Into the Ice With Wim Hof - His Incredible Story!

Recently I decided to embark on a fast. Not just any fast but the mother of all fasts, the Master fast. I have tried a few "juice" fasts in the past but nothing can compare to this. I was shocked by the way I felt, the mental clarity, the energy and the amount of crap that came out of me (including a 2 foot worm) while on the fast. The greatest shock was the fact that I thought it was impossible but managed to go a very long time without food including a few dry fasts (no food or water) for up to 72 hours. On this podcast I sat down with Gino Di Serio, the creator of the master fast system to talk about his life journey and how he developed this fast over 26 years of trial and error on himself. Some of the concepts are really out there and go against a lot of the mainstream theories but one thing is for certain people who are trying it are getting results! Connect with the Master Fast System group on Facebook to get more information or https://masterfast.yolasite.com/ and to read some of the stories of healing. On the first episode of our new show The W.A.Y. within I finally get to tell everyone my burning man story. It was probably one of the worst experiences of my life, which shifted to one of the most profound learning experiences ever. Its one of the reasons we made this new show.
